Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Great Missionaries of the Church
My best thanks are due to the proprie tors of that excellent Christian paper, 7716 in whose columns eight of these sketches have already appeared, for permission to republish them, together with fifteen others, in permanent form. As a fitting recognition of the invaluable aid I have received from Mrs. Josephine A. B. Goodnow of Dubuque, Iowa, her name has been placed on the title page.
I have also received valuable assistance in the matter of data, and in other ways, from Mrs. Mary E. Logan, late missionary in Micronesia; Miss Clementine Butler, Newton Centre, Mass; the Rev. James Mudge, Lowell, Mass, late associate of Bishop Thoburn in India; the Rev. Ross Taylor, New York; and Mr. James D. Creegan of Brooklyn.
